EPR at takeoff for A330 RR Trent

Airbus recently changed the Takeoff procedure to require setting 1.1 EPR before selecting FLX/TOGA when the crosswind is less than 20 kt.

Prior to the change they required 1.1 EPR regardless of the crosswind.

If anything I would have thought the higher EPR would be required when the crosswind is higher, not when it is less.

What am I missing here?
